Potential energy savings by radiative cooling system for a building in tropical climate

Nowadays, almost every building required a cooling system and most of them use active cooling, which normally operates using electricity generated from non-renewable fossil fuel. To achieve comfort, it is possible to utilize the natural environmental conditions to partially replace the active coolin...
